My Stupid Mouth

My Stupid Mouth - John Mayer Lyrics

My stupid mouth
has got me in trouble
i said too much again
to a date over dinner yesterdayand i could see
she was offended
she said "well anyway..."
just dying for a subject changeOh, another social casualty
score one more for mehow could i forget?
mama said "think before speaking"
no filter in my head
oh, what's a boy to do
i guess he better find one soon
We bit our lips
she looked out the window
rolling tiny balls of napkin paper
i played a quick game of chess with the salt and pepper shakerand i could see clearly
an indelible line was drawn
between what was good, what just slipped out and what went wrong
Oh, the way she feels about me has changedthanks for playing, try again.
how could i forget?mama said "think before speaking"
no filter in my head
oh, what's a boy to do
i guess he better find one
I'm never speaking up again
it only hurts me
i'd rather be a mystery
than she desert me
Oh i'm never speaking up againstarting now
One more thing
why is it my fault?so maybe i try too hard
but it's all because of this desire
i just wanna be liked
i just wanna be funnylooks like the jokes on me
so call me captain backfire
I'm never speaking up again
It only hurts me
i'd rather be a mystery
than she desert me
Oh i'm never speaking up again
I'm never speaking up again
I'm never speaking up again
Starting now
Starting now
